GEEK TO THE BEAT!

Ight so....whilst "Jloggin" (joggin through blogs), I stumbled across this gem. It's funny how the whole blog thing can sometimes be an Alice in Wonderland experience of sorts. Speaking of which, I must say, I love the Approach and creative execution of this video. Mind you, I dont know this guy, never heard of him but....this was a good Introduction. I will definitely look into more of his music.
My faithful audience I present to you:

...is what Cassie is.
She posted this on twitter saying

"something that will shock your mother, but make her call you a ROCK STAR."

I had déjà vu, of the one and only Miss Jack Davey of J*Davey.

Don't forget the orginal rock star, Miss Marcia Hamilton who originated this hairstyle for Jack, she is celebrity hairstylist extraordinaire who has styled the locks of stars like Will Smith all the way to Brandy.

Peep J*Davey below....

Karaoke!

I have never gone to a dimly lit bar, filled with drunken American Why?-dols, and attempted to sing my Mint Condition love songs to a un-ethused crowd. But if Karaoke were ANYTHING like this here....Huh! I def would give it a try!


The song is by a group called Metronomy. This is their new single, A Thing For Me. Underpinned by perfectly arranged guitar chords, drum machines and general electric trickery, I think I am beginning to foster a new appreciation for the art known as- KA-RA-OKE!!

SPIT THAT
is TONIGHT!!

It's Not Karaoke, but It is Just as Fantabulous!!

Colin Munroe: Piano Lessons

So Colin Munroe has released Unsung Hero Mixtape [Marked Music/Rowdy Records; 2009], as you already know if you keep up with this blog, and on it is this beauty "Piano Lessons" produced by Black Milk. Personally, I loved this song when I heard it on the mixtape because it was so simple. Did you peep the Dr. Seuss's Put Me In a Zoo book? Interesting way to transmit a message.

Mr. Munroe with his sarcastic hook "Don't bet on me, I'm a long shot," I think summarizes the thought in all of our heads when we are forced to do something. But don't forget, "In a million, you might be the one." So, on that note, I am going to attempt at playing my little dusty keyboard, wish me luck! haha!

By the way, Theophilus London put on a wonderful performace last night at Webster's Hall Studio. He definitely jumped into the crowd and onto my head, but it was all LOVE! I am soo anticipating This Charming Mixtape, dropping January 26, 2009.

So I already introduced you to Rhode Island's hero, Theo, but now you get to see him for yourself. I like the authenticity of this video, no glitz,

no glamour,

just the real.

The artist and the music, the most important part. So peep the video, that is now featured on www.onsmash.com.
